SHHHHH! It's a SECRET!

Ok.
Here's something that kinda annoys me...
Why do people insist on calling passwords: "SECRET passwords"


Like seriously...who has a password that ISN'T secret.
That's the point of passwords...to be SECRET.

Also, why do people say "DNS server" when DNS is an acronym for
Domain Name Server. It's like saying Domain Name Server server.

I guess the same could be said for "SCUBA gear". You really only have to say: "I'm putting on my SCUBA, not SCUBA gear.
"Put on your Self-Contained Underwater Breathing Aparatus gear."
It all just sounds funny because it's redundant.
*sigh*

Yet another phrase from the offices of
The office of redundant offices of redundant redundundandancy...offices.
